Every Breath You Take novel Chapter 102

In the hospital, Summer and Roland sat on the sofa in the ward. Summer sighed. "Who did this to Moni? Moni is kind and has never offended anyone. Why are these paparazzi targeting her?"

"She stole someone's fiance. Isn't it an offense?" Roland sneered.

"You mean Madrigal did this?"

"Yes!" Roland sneered. "Let's see what she'll do next. Since she wants to die so badly, don't blame me for being heartless!"

While they were talking, Beck called Roland. "Mr. Wang, the public opinion is against Miss Mo. Quarmy's public relations team is trying to suppress this matter."

"Let netizens continue to enlarge this matter." Roland ordered.

Summer jumped up in shock. "Roland, what do you want to do?"

"Nothing. Return like for like!" Roland replied coldly.

"But, aren't you hurting Moni? What's the effect on Madrigal?" Summer doubted.

"You'll see the effect soon!" Roland laughed evilly. "Isn't someone trying to ruin Monica's reputation? I'd like to see whose reputation will be worse!"

Monica woke up slowly. She doesn't seem to have fully regained consciousness. She moved her eyes from Summer's face to Roland's and stopped. After a while, she asked, "Hey, why are you here?"

Roland stretched out his hand to hold her hand. "How do you feel? Mad? Scared?"

Monica's face turned pale, and she suddenly sat up. Roland reached out his hand to hold her. "Take care of yourself. Don't worry, I'll handle this matter!"

Quarmy personally made Monica's favorite porridge and prepared to send it to her. Before he went out, Noah called him and said that a few minutes ago, someone had put a recording online. The recording showed that Madrigal ordered Nee to deal with Monica. The impact of this matter was very bad now.

Everyone was saying that Madrigal was a woman of hypocrisy. Quarmy didn't say anything. The truth of the recording was still unknown and this matter was not that simple. It seemed that someone was going to make a big fuss. Who was behind this?

Of course, Madrigal and Yale also knew about the recording. "Mom, what should we do now? Quarmy will know it soon. How should I explain?"

"Let me think about it! Let me think about it!" Yale frowned. "That little b*tch wants to be with Quarmy again. I won't satisfy her. I have to get rid of her, but you'll suffer a bit."

"Mom, I can do anything so long as she can't be with Quarmy."

"That's good. Those who achieve great things don't care about trifles. Let's do something ruthless this time!" Yale sneered. "Tell Quarmy that someone is framing you with that recording. Leave the rest to

me. Madrigal nodded. "I'll do it now!"

Quarmy came to visit Monica with the porridge, but was stopped by Roland. "Mr. Huo, how dare you come again? Oh, porridge? Did you make it yourself? What's wrong with you? Are you asking for forgiveness for your fiancee? I'm afraid you're going to be disappointed. Monica just had my chicken porridge. You'd better go back!"

"Get out of my way!" Quarmy's face darkened.

"Hey, why are you here? Get out!" Summer also came out.

Quarmy's head hurt when he saw Summer. She was hot- tempered and direct. However, her good relationship with Monica made him completely helpless. He couldn't argue with her, nor could he beat her.

At this time, Madrigal appeared. Like Quarmy, there was also a thermos bottle in her hand. Summer couldn't help laughing. "You two are really a couple. Mr. Huo, are you coming here to act with your mistress?"

Madrigal ignored Summer's sarcasm. She walked over to Quarmy timidly. "I'm here to visit my sister."

"Get out of here! Shameless woman! It's you who ruined Moni's reputation. Do you still want to pretend to be innocent? Do you think you can deceive everyone?"

"No, I didn't! Someone slandered me!" Madrigal cried pitifully. "Quarmy, you have to believe me. I didn't hurt my sister."

"Tsk tsk!" Roland smacked his lips. "Miss Jane, are you an actress? How can you cry so easily? The fact is in front of us. Do you still want to deny?"

"I really didn't do those things." Madrigal explained, "Let me go in and explain it to my sister."

"Get out! Don't act here and dirty our eyes." Summer directly said. Seeing that Quarmy and Madrigal didn't move, she suddenly sneered. "Are you leaving or not? If not, I'll shout."

"Miss Xia, what are you going to shout?" Roland interrupted.

"The story of a cheating man and his mistress. What do you think?"

"Sounds good. Do you want me to give you a loudspeaker so that everyone in the hospital can hear you?"

Quarmy's face was gloomy. Since Summer was here, he would not be able to see Moni. Summer was just a battle-axe. He looked at Madrigal, who was still wiping away her tears, and said, "Let's go!"

"Don't come here again. Please, show mercy!" Summer added.

"Quarmy, that recording is really a fake. Someone slandered me." After walking out of the hospital, Madrigal came to the car outside and explained to Quarmy.

Quarmy didn't say anything. Madrigal swore that she was not lying. After a long while, Quarmy said, "Madrigal, even if you did it, I don't blame you!"

"I didn't! Quarmy, believe me!"

"Fine, you go back first. Be careful on the way and remember to take medicine." Quarmy interrupted her. Madrigal left obediently. Along the way, she felt uneasy. Quarmy didn't seem to be angry. He treated her the same as before. Did he believe her or not?

After returning home, she told Yale everything. Yale sneered and said, "No matter what, you have to deny it. Your father will be back soon."

"Mom, Dad has always been partial to Monica. If he knows this, he will definitely blame me."

"Don't worry. When he comes back, there will be a good show!"

Zoe came back in the afternoon. When he entered the house, he didn't look happy. Yale and her daughter carefully greeted him. Yale was calm but Madrigal had been nervous all the time. She even scalded her own hand while making tea for Zoe.

Yale naturally knew what her daughter was worried about. She asked Madrigal to go back to her room to deal with the wound, while she herself accompanied Zoe to chat in the living room.

"Did anything happen when I was not at home?" Zoe took a sip of tea and asked slowly.

"Something happened to Moni..." Yale said with hesitation.

"What?" Zoe put down his cup and looked at Yale.

Yale naturally wanted to tell him Monica and Quarmy's affair. Before she could finish her words, Madrigal's cry came from upstairs. Then the door was opened, and Madrigal stumbled out. "Let me die!"

"What happened?" Yale stood up all of a sudden. "Monica... Monica framed me! You can see it by yourself!" Madrigal stamped her feet. "It's all because of you! My reputation is ruined. I'd better die!"

"Shut up! Don't talk nonsense!" Yale scolded her while running upstairs.

At this time, Lancy anxiously came in with a newspaper. "Mayor, bad news!"

She hurriedly handed the newspaper to Zoe. Zoe immediately saw an eye- catching big title. "The mayor's daughter is a mistress!"

The report explained the relationship between Madrigal, Monica, and Quarmy. It said that Madrigal used to seduce Quarmy when he was Monica's husband.

The mayor's daughter was actually a mistress. It could be imagined how terrible the impact was. Zoe's hand was trembling. Suddenly, he passed out.

Yale screamed. Madrigal stopped crying and came down from upstairs to help Yale awaken Zoe. After a while, Zoe woke up slowly and began to cough violently. Yale was busy helping him smooth his breathing. Zoe coughed for a while and suddenly took out a handkerchief from his pocket to cover his mouth. Madrigal screamed, "Dad, blood!"

Then, Zoe fainted again.

"Call the driver to send him to the hospital!" Lancy trotted out to call the driver. The Jiang family was in a mess.

At the same time, Noah hurriedly came to Quarmy. "Mr. Huo, bad news!"

"What happened?" Quarmy was surprised. Noah had never lost his composure like this. He was sure that something bad had happened.

"Your relationship with Miss Jane and Miss Mo...has been exposed." Noah felt awkward and explained, "The surrogacy of Miss Jane was suddenly made public. Newspapers and the Internet are all talking about it. Miss Jane's refutation is badly influenced!"

Quarmy turned on the computer and found that public opinion was no longer against Monica. Everyone now was scolding him, Madrigal, and Jenny.

The writer of the report, who gave a detailed account of how Monica was bullied, was good at stirring up public emotions. With the report, Monica became a victim. In people's eyes, Quarmy was a scum, Jenny was a bad mother- in- law, while Madrigal was a shameless mistress.

Quarmy was still calm. However, he was a little worried about Madrigal. This report was going to completely ruin Madrigal's reputation. This matter was getting more and more troublesome.

"What should we do now?" Noah asked.

"Let me think about it!" Quarmy rubbed his forehead. He just wanted to settle the matter, but things were going out of control. He had to solve it immediately.

Summer took the newspaper and went into the ward with delight. She put the newspaper in Monica's hand. "Moni, look!"

Monica took over the newspaper, and the big title came into view. ""The mayor's daughter is a mistress!"

"Roland is really great. In just two days, everything is reversed. The two b*tches are humiliated. Ha ha ha!" Summer laughed happily.

Monica smiled bitterly. "It's not a good thing!" She endured humiliation and didn't say a word, just because she didn't want to expose these disgusting things. Zoe was her father and this matter would have a great impact on him. She wondered how angry he would be.

While she was thinking, the phone rang. It was from Madrigal. "Monica, are you satisfied after you have made such a scene?"

"Miss Jane, you made a mistake. This has nothing to do with me!" Monica answered coldly.

"How dare you deny it? Who else would do such a thing except you?" Madrigal roared. Yale grabbed her phone. "Moni, your father vomited blood and fainted. He's in the hospital now!"

Monica was stunned and immediately got out of the bed. She ran out in a hurry and bumped into Roland. He reached out his hand to hold her. "Where are you going?"

"Roland, look what you did!" Monica smiled bitterly. Roland did it to help her, she should have thanked him. But what about Zoe? "My father vomited blood!"

"What?" Roland was shocked. "For such a small thing? He's really weak."

Monica was so angry that she shouted at him, "Roland, why didn't you ask for my permission? Although I hate him, he is my father. Do you know what will happen if others know that his daughter is a mistress? You are helping me on the surface, but in fact, you are helping my father's opponents."

"Is that so?" Roland still couldn't figure it out.

Monica stamped her feet, pushed Roland away, and ran out.

"Of course!" Summer gave the newspaper to Roland. "You embarrassed Mayor Jane!"

Roland glanced at the newspaper and said with grievance. "It has nothing to do with me!"

"Don't deny it. Who else would do it?"

"I wanted to do it, but I didn't. Zoe in involved in this matter. I will ask for Monica's permission if I am really going to do it."

"Really?"

"Yes!"

"Then who did it?" Summer was also confused.

Quarmy comforted Madrigal softly and looked at Monica and Roland. Their whispers made him a bit unhappy. "I'll leave for a moment. I'll come back later." After saying that, Roland gave Quarmy a defiant look and strode away.

The doctors finally went out of the ward. Madrigal, Yale and Quarmy went in to see Zoe. Monica stood outside.

She heard footsteps coming from behind. Roland came back. He whispered a few words to her, and then her eyes widened. "Really?"

"Will I lie to you?"

Quarmy came out and looked at them calmly. He said to Monica, "I'm going to buy some food. What do you want to eat?"

"No need, I'm leaving!" Monica answered lightly.

Quarmy was stunned. Apparently, he didn't expect Monica to say that. Her father was sick. How could she leave? But thinking that she was not in good health, he didn't say anything.

Monica looked at Roland and said, "Wait for me outside for a few minutes. I'll come out later."

After that, she pushed the door open and walked in. Seeing her, Zoe showed a weak smile. "Moni, I'm fine."

Monica ignored him. She looked at Yale and Madrigal. "You guys go out. I want to talk to Mayor Jane."

Her words sound cold and distant, and there was no expression on her face. Yale glanced at her and then looked at Zoe. "Your dad is in poor health. Don't stimulate him..."

"I say, can you go out?"

"You may leave now!" Zoe ordered. Then, Yale and Madrigal left and closed the door.

Monica looked at Zoe lying on the bed with a sneer. "Mayor Jane, you don't have to act. I know you are not ill!"

Zoe was stunned, and there was a trace of embarrassment on his face. "Moni, I'm sorry! I can explain!"

"Go ahead!"

"I don't want to lie to you. I'm in some kind of trouble and I need to lay low for a while. Coincidentally, this thing happened, so..."

Monica couldn't help but laugh. This was her father. When she heard that he vomited blood, she immediately came here, but his illness was actually a lie. She was really disappointed. If it weren't for Roland, she would have been kept in the dark and felt guilty. She might even find a way to make up for it. Fortunately, Roland told her the truth!

"Mayor Jane, if I didn't expose your lie, would you keep lying to me? Did you expect me to make it up to you and the two b*tches out of guilt?"

"No, Moni, you misunderstood. I've never wanted you to compensate them. I was forced to lie..."

"I only want to ask you, do they know that you're lying?" Monica asked coldly.

"No." Zoe was really a selfish official. Monica looked at him ironically. She didn't know what to say.

Seeing that, Zoe blushed and said, "Moni, I know that you blame me, or even hate me. However, I have my own reasons. In my heart, only you and your mother are important..."

"Mayor Jane, you are really forgetful. My mother has been dead for more than ten years! She's no longer in your heart." Monica interrupted him, regardless of his embarrassment. "Since there's nothing wrong with your body, then I'll leave first. You know what, I'm still sick!" After saying this, she turned to leave.

"Moni!" Monica ignored him. She felt disgusted. How could she have such a father? If possible, she really didn't want to be his daughter.

After leaving the hospital, Monica had been silent. Roland had been secretly looking at her. Finally, he couldn't help but ask, "Did you quarrel with your father?"

Monica snorted.

"I... I didn't mean to tell you the truth. I was just afraid that you would worry about him."

"How do you know he is lying?"

"That's a guess." Roland answered.

"How dare you ask me to question him?" Monica was speechless. If Zoe was really sick, her question would hurt him a lot.

"In fact, this is the case. Recently, many officials are being investigated and the secretary has been isolated. Your father is under investigation, too. There are many people involved in this matter. His superiors asked him to lay low for a while, so he decided to pretend to be ill."

"How do you know this?"

"My grandfather's old friend is a high- ranking official." Roland answered. "Your father's reputation is not bad, so his superiors want to protect him."

Monica sneered. She was really speechless. The more she thought about it, the more angry she became. Roland comforted her. "That's what officials do. Take it easy."

Monica didn't say anything. She could only try her best not to think about it.

"By the way, what do you think of this incident? Why did someone expose Madrigal's affair with Quarmy at such a critical moment? Was it done by Mayor Jane's opponents, or the two b*tches?"

"I don't think the two b*tches did it. Although they want to deal with me, they won't hurt Zoe and themselves. After all, they still have to rely on Zoe." Monica pondered for a moment and said, "I think it must have done by Zoe's opponents."

"That makes sense. But I don't think so."

"Why?"

Roland answered, "Although Madrigal's reputation has been ruined, from another point of view, she becomes a victim. She will be on the same side as Quarmy and Jenny. Maybe Quarmy and Jenny will be sympathize with her. At this moment, Jenny must hate you to the extreme. As for Quarmy, he must be mad at you because of this matter. They did it not only to win the sympathy of Quarmy, but to make Zoe Jane mistakenly believe that you manipulated all this. Compared with their tolerance and magnanimity, you look selfish. Zoe may even dislike you...

"Is that so?" Monica couldn't believe it. "Are they so scheming?"

"Maybe!" Roland said causally.
